Subject: Laziness, I'm told



Humeston, IA

Was told by a manager of a prominent ag supply coop in NC MO that some guys have been in continuous beans for 10-15 years.  Why?  He says laziness.  Don't want to haul a bunch of corn to the elevator, much easier to haul 40 bu/ac than 120 bu/ac, plus you don't have to store and dry the beans like you do corn.  He said in his county that there were 3 times as many soy acres as corn acres.

Manager spoke of a field that had to be sprayed 5 times so far for giant ragweed, and the ragweed is not completely dead.  Glyphosate and ALS resistant (FirstRate didn't hardly phase it, even with two passes at 0.33 oz and 1 oz/ac rates).

So Roy@ranch and Larkin, what the heck is going on there?
